Abstract

The notion ‘assisting with sins’ is a rule founded upon argumentations from the Qur’an and tradition, reason and consensus, and its authority is unassailable. There is almost no dispute as regards its authority, whereas the implications of the term have always been controversial and contested among the jurists. What has been considered as important in this research is the study of the history and transformation of Shiite jurisprudential views on this issue from the beginning. For this purpose, a descriptive analytical method has been adopted based on the application of library documents. A look at the opinions of jurists demonstrates how greatly diverse they are as regards their different definitions of ‘assisting with sins’, where most of those definitions are based on conventional understanding. On how to adapt the concept of ‘assisting’ with conventional understanding, various criteria have been mentioned, mostly referring back to one criterion expressed and explained best by Sheikh Ansari, i.e. assisting with preliminaries whose benefits are exclusively ḥarām. Finally, based on a summary of the statements and theories, it can be concluded that in case of failure of conventional understanding as regards the problem, the criteria for a correct application of the common understanding must be intentionality of the assistant.
